Alright i know this has come up before, but i searched and came up with NOTHIN that helped me. My question is, when it comes to adjusting the height . . exactly what do i do? I have the tool, but is it really necessary, and how do i use it? I need to raise the car up about half an inch or so, any help would be much appreciated. THANKS IN ADVANCE !

 

all i do is jack up the car so that the tire is hanging then adjust the top thingy upwords then bring the bottom one up after it.

 

ummm this may sound stupid . . but im still kinda lost . . does ANYONE care to explain a lil PLZ . . i really dont want to mess anything up. ANYONE ?

 

this is exactly why you would want to do installs on your own! knowledge comes from experience, not from paying some mechanic big bucks to mess up your car. first of all...YES, you need the "tool" (hex).
1. raise up your car...you know how to do that right???
2. look in the wheel well and you'll see the "GC Coilz"
3. stick the "tool" in the "hole"... dear god i hope you know how to do that, jk
4. loosen up the hex bolt... remember lefty loosey
5. on the collar, the "thing" that your spring is sitting on, there are words and arrows to show you which way to turn to lower and vice versa.
6. it will be sort of a twist and play, so adjust accordingly. once you've got to the height you're happy with...stick the "tool" in the "hole" and turn... righty tighty!
and you're done!

yea jack up the car and withthe allen wrench you got with them loosen the bolt and then turn it to the right. remember.... lefty=lower, righty=raise. be sure and tighten the allen bolt afterwards.

 

Thanx alot guys . . im gonna try to see if i can do it tonight, with a couple flashlights. If not, then i'll be doing it first thing after college. I'll let ya'll know how it goes.

 

alright just got back from friends garage, my car is still there but im home lol. One quick question guys, when im spinning the thingy that my spring is sitting on, am i suppose to be listening for a click or something? Im asking this STUPID question b/c i raised the passenger side front wheel alredy and i THINK I DID hear a click sound . . PLEASE RESPOND, CUZ THAT WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR

 

Hey, does the long sleeves goes in the front? I bought a used GC that didn't come w/ instruction manual. Thanks.

 

For Ground Controls right? No click that I know of. It's called an Allen Key, I believe the size if 4.5 or 5. Are they brand spanking new or dirty? I tried adjusting mine w/o WD-40. Hear lots of grinding. That was the dirt.
